We have demonstrated the evolutional depth profiling methods for local minerals of Bacan in order to establish the sold price and maintenance of minerals sector in Indonesia. The depth profiling methods was performed by elemental analysis and mineralogical characterisation using X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). We refined materials parameters then constructed the materials models to describe the difference of materials characters. These results described that LG Bacan has crystals phase of Dioptase (CuSiO 3), Liebenbergite (Ni 2 SiO 4), and variant of Calderonite (Ca 2 CuP 2 O 9). DG Bacan has crystals phase of Fayalite (Fe 2 SiO 4), and variant of Ferriannite (KCaFe 3 Si 3 O 12). All crystals phase in LG Bacan has growth orientation on [001] direction, and has more structured crystallite size with small range of its distribution. All phase in DG Bacan has the preferred growth so, except Fayalite crystal phase. DG Bacan less structured than LG Bacan, with wider range of crystallite size distribution, but has harder structure than LG Bacan. Quartz structure in LG Bacan was more polar than DG Bacan.

Cyanides are deadly toxic substances commonly found in cassava root tuber. Higher content of cyanides causes bitter taste of the root tuber. Therefore, analysis of cyanide content has been used as one of criteria for bitterness in cassava. The substitute common method used for this purpose was organoleptic test that could lead to poisoning, or argentometry, which is complicated, time-consuming, and requires lots of reagents. Therefore, a fast, easy, and safe method is strongly demanded. In this work, a smart screening technology kit (SST-Kit) was developed using ninhydrin reagent. This simple, fast, and low-cost method can be applied in the field for the analysis of cyanide levels in cassava. This method was optimized to the concentration of sodium carbonate from 0.5 to 2.0% by measuring the red color intensity produced under various times of reading from 1 to 3 minutes and three sample preparation techniques. The optimum condition for SST-Kit to read the cyanides level was achieved under the condition of 0.5% of sodium carbonate with a time readout of 2 minutes, using grinding preparation technique followed by dilution. The SST-kit had been applied on cassava samples with the accuracy of more than 90%.
